hey everyone welcome back to the channel still scholasticis here i'm anthony i'm
casey and today we're watching the eighth episode of full metal alchemist brotherhood
so they went in to sneak into this laboratory that they said they weren't gonna go and then
they just like went like like running towards it um and then they found what looks like the
people who were with like you know gluttony and lust and all them they have the red
eyes so that makes me wonder are these like the rest of the seven deadly sins or something maybe
um i have a feeling too that these people might be working for the government in some capacity or
they had worked for the government at some point in time you know they were after like they called
him scarface we've just been calling him scar but they were after him at the beginning of the last
episode and i just get the feeling that at some point allen ed are gonna have to team up with him
to take these people down i'm just getting that vibe i feel like they're doing some work with
the philosopher's stones either they're making them they're doing research on them for them or
guarding them even maybe guarding the research to them potentially yeah um they seem like they're
the type that like are willing to get down and dirty you know if they're getting paid like do
whatever it takes kill whoever do they need to you know that kind of thing versus maybe some
of the state alchemists wouldn't want to do that obviously like ed um you know they wouldn't want
to just like mindlessly kill so they might have had to hire these people who can you know which
you know they also said they've referred to people as like humans too before so they kind of makes me
so they're not humans what are you yeah what are you are were they state alchemists at some point
that like transmutated themselves into some other sort of being yeah is that possible i'm really
interested to see if we're gonna find out any more information here about the fifth laboratory
where they're at right now um the the revelation about like the philosopher's stone having to you
know have people be killed in a sense like to make one it was like a crazy revelation yeah and they
kind of scaved over it but does that mean that there's not going to be any hope to like get al's
body back because then though he went back to what the doctor said like find the truth within the
truth so does that mean maybe there is another way yeah maybe i don't know or maybe it's like
find the truth of why it is that way or like why were they even doing research on this in the first
place or something you know all right well if you haven't already please don't forget to subscribe

i'm number 66. well that's the name that you gave me when i came to your middle body too i'm going
to cut you up nice and neat i wonder if he's just like a soul attached to this transmutating people
they might be doing a whole bunch of weird [ __ ] that'd be like minions or something
i bet this is what they used to transmute a philosopher's stone yeah ill that's right my
orders are to dispose of anyone who wanders in here poking his nose where it doesn't belong
my my what's this i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you're hollow inside
yeah um i could tell from the sound i spar against someone like you all the time so there are people
like me on the outside too are they oh what 48 is the number i was assigned when i was on death row
ah the prisoners yeah i was a mass murderer you see so you were slated for execution this
laboratory are they using condemned prisoners like you to make philosopher stones here
well i can't tell you it is in my area gave me this body and made me the trusty guard dog
wow if you destroy this the fight's yours wow that's awfully considerate of you to show me
your weak spot as long as you're in such a giving mood then how about this why not just
let me go but what kind of mass murderer lets his prey get away so easily my dear little elysius
lieutenant colonel hughes oh what a
coincidence
you know he loves them oh the bolt oh crap i forgot about that it's like damn it winry
who cares about rust at a time like this
oh nobody makes me bleed my own blood
what a cute little monkey
hi that's what he focused on right about now my companion should be finishing off the partner
you left outside is this companion of yours strong yes he is he isn't as strong as i
in am case i don't need to worry you see
we've been sparring partners a long time and i've still never beaten him
that's so funny where's your little thingy is it in the head
there's a bit of a story behind that i already know it would you
like to hear been there done that it all starts with a man by the name of barry
barry okay right here incense is this him there was a butcher named he was him who loved his work
his favorite part was cutting the people i'm starting to feel like it is but one day barry
found that cutting up beef and pork wasn't enough anymore oh my gosh and began cutting up
people instead night after night after terrorizing central for so long barry was sent to the gallows
for his wicked deeds barry isn't actually dead you see he's very much alive and charged with
guarding a certain place only without his body yes that's right he's standing in front of your back
that's like their prison sentence yeah sorry i've never heard of you
i'm from a little town in the east shouldn't you be going
ah oh what happened to your body or something what happened to your body
are you sure you and your brother are really related well i guess we don't look that much
alike anymore no no no that's not what i mean are you sure that you're not a puppet created and
controlled by your so-called brother were you ever even a real person oh he's trying to get in his
head i have memories i remember who i was before and who's to say those memories aren't made up
no i'm questioning everything i know i think he's just trying to mess with him
you were never alive to begin with it's as simple as that then how do you know that
you were really alive i'm worth trust me this area's off-limits don't move oh mike there's
nothing i love more than chopping up live people i can't control myself oh my god go out do it now
oh it was a fake is he gonna wipe it off what's the matter you still haven't destroyed the blunt
seal i so kindly pointed out you're going to or not there's something i need to ask you about
the philosopher's stone yes i'm not beaten yet the body but the water oh
oh my gosh you should have known that i know oh he has two i forgot to mention
something about this mass murderous slicer his crimes were really done by a pair of brothers
oh [ __ ] it's brothers here he comes i'm going to dall needs to come in here i'm going to die
wait what was he singing for oh did he remember something
oh [ __ ] does that like give him inspiration to do it
you reminded me of someone i don't like doing exactly what he did
he did the al yeah yeah come on
hurry up and destroy us no i'm not a murderer with bodies like these are we really even people
oh it's too close to home people whether you have physical bodies or not
oh didn't that would mean i didn't believe my own brother is a person oh you've got a blood seal too
right destroy it go ahead bro he's trying to die yeah boy all along just manipulating to believe
but then you're dead that's stupid then i guess i'll have to do it for you bow tie i know that my
brother is a human being that means you guys are human too oh my god for that boy i'll give you a
parting gift i'll tell you everything i'll tell you who made the philosopher's stone all right
oh crap
yeah yeah
brother oh the brother says oh that's like so sad
you were trying to kill one of our most important sacrifices do you understand me sacrifice
what are they gonna do with him this is a fight that you started so come on yeah
technical difficulties oh his arm we can't have him poking around this place again it's
too dangerous what is it it'll have to go blow it up i've been too afraid to say he's like it's
like oh no tell me he thinks he's not real say it before and he's just a kid too like a puppet
what stay right there oh okay or the next one puts a hole in your head
oh they're blowing it up they need to get out of there his life's not in danger but he has lost
a lot of blood so you might want to get into a hospital as soon as you can why are they letting
them live i wonder if they're going to blow up the baby yeah is it going to blow up there too
i know it well that's the sound of a building exploding is that the guy from the first episode
you keep it down in there kimberley oh dude yeah i was just recalling the ashvalen war of
extermination and it put me in such a good mood you sure you're not a puppet created by yourself
that's not gonna go away anytime soon i feel like wow that was a really good episode i have
some theories and one of them is that like their father is involved in this and like he might be
like orchestrating it all because i mean he was able to put the the souls attached the
armor his son may have been able to do it too and maybe that's who they keep referring to is
like who's in charge of it oh my gosh and then baby that's why they're not killing him either
but why do they need they said he's there like they're an important sacrifice to the
dad you're trying to sacrifice to bring back the mom yeah if he's doing all this crazy blood thing
maybe if it's like i don't know if the if the dad's willing to do that i don't know if he'd be
you know he would love somebody to bring back the mom so i don't think that would be the case maybe
it's for something else but i'm like i'm like what about him or maybe it's like because he's so
like maybe maybe he has to sacrifice somebody he loves or you know he cared about to have like a
a solid philosophy stone that doesn't go away you know i think he like maybe we're just like i know
we're here we're going off the theory that you know the dad might be the ultimate orchestrator
that far if he might blame him for what happened to them maybe but i also kind of feel like
what if it's just like a power thing you know and what if it's kind of like a thanos soul
stone type of thing you have to like give up somebody you love you know yeah i i don't know
but i don't know i'm getting some vibes like that because they didn't kill him for a reason
he was and they said he's a sacrifice he was such an important sacrifice
so things here at central are pretty hectic the senior staff in charge of stayed out
how long has this been going on oh rumor has it a promotion to central for one colonel mustang
isn't far off oh just a word of warning from someone who knows the game get yourself a wife
i was not thinking that at all lieutenant colonel stop making so many personal phone calls okay
oh so sorry i thought i was gonna get involved with like politics and stuff like that
so to kind of get back to what we were thinking that this may be the father um you know
orchestrating this we've obviously seen what we think is the father in the opening credit scene
and you know i mean that could be like something or the opening credit scene but the intro and
you know that could just be like references to the past but i don't know there's just a lot of
things here the fact that these people were able to transmutate souls onto like armor two and maybe
his son was able to do that exact same thing uh with al and then they keep calling him a sacrifice
but they didn't want to kill him yet yeah i'm like they called him precious he was such an
important sacrifice why they just let him go they're waiting for something that doesn't
make any sense but they also don't want him to get information because they also blew up the library
they're like watching him and they're like trying to make sure that he doesn't and maybe that's why
they went after scar in the first place because scar maybe knows something and maybe i don't think
he was going to do something because he was trying to kill him or maybe that's why they were trying
to make sure that he wouldn't kill him actually oh yeah because he was trying to kill state
alchemists and they were probably trying to kill the ones trying to kill the state alchemist so
he doesn't get killed yeah but i'm like is it just edward are they trying to find other people too or
is there something super specific about him i feel like it's something specific about him like i mean
yeah it has to be because you know when lust went over there to see the doctor a couple
episodes ago and like i thought i mean he still might be dead we haven't seen him
but obviously he got she got the information about the library and the library burned down
and then obviously once they saw ed there they said okay this place needs to go too like he can't
find out the truth like there are people actively preventing him from finding out the truth wow
maybe it's gotta be the dad like you would assume like maybe it's huh interesting you know i really
liked the show before and i was interested but like i feel like after this episode i'm like
hooked like i'm like i gotta see what what else there's just so many like interesting dynamics
that it could be something i mean we might be off like based on this but it's still cool to think
like to like turn your mind to like you know like what could it be speculate it's like fun
to have little theories like that and then also on the other hand al is in his head now because
that one told him like you might not even be real which i'm like that's kind of weird i mean i think
he was just like a tactic at the moment i think he's real like that wouldn't make any sense if he
wasn't they showed us the entire backstory like why would they show the viewer that unless yeah
i mean that could be like a big reveal too like what if like okay going back to the theory you
know this is the dad what if like his childhood wasn't what we saw maybe that's just like you
know the memories he did implant in his mind and he made somebody there to kind of be there for him
and maybe he did that maybe like researching like his dad's research papers and stuff like that
if that is the dad who's making these people maybe like you you would think that edward would have
made to the brother i mean he's not told him i mean that's just i hope that that's not the case
like i really hope that i mean it's hard to say that i hope that that isn't the case but like i
because it would mean his brother didn't really exist but these other people like existed like
unless they were putting these memories of like your but then they're using prisoners
though so it doesn't make sense so i'm pretty sure these other people existed
so i think [ __ ] you barry you really got us in our heads now
like he got us questioning everything gosh yeah so i but you know not just us but al in in the show
is gonna probably go through that and who knows what that's gonna cause later on down the road
and then the fact that edward even was like i have something i need to tell you and i never
got to tell him see i thought he was going to tell him originally and i still kind of think it's this
about like kind of like that weird space he went into after everything happened i thought that's
where he was going to and he still might but i don't know like [ __ ] you barry yeah damn
